Following the rapid economic development and industrialization in Taiwan, the school has undertaken transformation in accordance with the changing social and political environment. The school was promoted from a five-year junior college (National Ilan Institute of Agriculture and Technology) to a polytechnic college (National Ilan Institute of Technology). NIU is now an university which offers comprehensive degrees such as BA, BS, MA, MS and PhD. In 2016, NIU celebrate its 90th anniversary, a milestone in the history of higher education in Taiwan.
